So this is just a dev wanting to scratch an itch issue and/or arrogance and/pr ignorance?

I always wondered why there was a separate layer for VPN's when you can so easily use ssh for a VPN at least for a secure way to use the internet. I suppose if you want it for the act of "being" on a remote network as if you are local is a VPN advantage, but I'm pretty sure ssh has a way to make that happen as well.

If I get this correct, it is a good idea to use ssh as a chat app's security methods?




"just a dev" - do you mean Rob Pike ?
